ASK US ABOUT “TEETH IN A DAY”

BY ALISON STANTONAs a Bikram yoga teacher, Keri McCook says people

often asked her if there was ever going to be a Bikram studio in Chandler.

After discussing it with her husband, McCook decided to take the plunge, and her business, Bikram Yoga Chandler, opened last month.

“In our first week, we had more than 300 sign-ups, and that confirmed to me Bikram yoga needed to be brought to this community,” says McCook.

Bikram Choudhury, the founder of Bikram yoga, personally trained McCook and all the other teachers at her studio during a nine-week intensive program she describes as “grueling.”

Choudhury developed the 26 Bikram yoga postures from Hatha yoga, according to McCook. Doing the series of postures in sequence, she notes, is meant to specifically work every part of the body to give all of the internal organs, veins, ligaments and muscles everything needed to maintain optimum health and maximum function.

While the techniques are similar to other forms of yoga that involve learning different postures and exercises, McCook says there is one key element that sets Bikram apart: heat.

“Bikram yoga is the original hot yoga, and was brought to America in the early 1970s,” she says, adding the room is heated to about 105 degrees with 40% humidity.

“We add the humidity element to the room to increase the body’s ability to sweat in order to systematically detoxify the body,” McCook says.

“We have a state-of-the-art heating system. We are the only one in the Valley to have this system in our studio. It maintains a unified heat throughout the room and purifies the air, getting rid of bacteria with the UV lights featured in the heating unit. We also have unique flooring that is antibacterial and microbial which helps to eliminate odors as well.”

Classes at Bikram Yoga Chandler are designed for all abilities and levels of experience. Beginners to advanced practitioners are welcome to attend any class, says McCook, a mother of five with children at Hamilton High School, Bogle Junior High and Tarwater Elementary. While current clients range in age from 10 to seniors, she’d also like to add classes for younger children.

Classes are 90 minutes, starting as early as 5:30 a.m. to 8:15 p.m.

“Don’t be intimidated if you’ve never practiced Bikram before,” McCook says.

“If you have any injuries, feel out of shape, chronic pain, high blood pressure, stress, anxiety, insomnia or arthritis this is a perfect way for you to heal.”

McCook is pleased so many of her students already see the benefits of the exercise.

“We have received overwhelming response that this yoga has helped them.”

Bikram Yoga Chandler is at 1900 W. Germann Rd,, Suite 3, Chandler. For more information, call 480-656-9060 or visit BikramYogaChandler.com.

In-store paper shredding is now offered by The UPS Store, located in the Fry’s Marketplace at 975 E. Riggs Rd., Chandler, along with select The UPS Store locations across the United States. The next shredding party is 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sat., Oct. 27, and the first 10 pounds are free.

The UPS Store added the service to promote identity protection, based on estimates by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) that nearly 9 million Americans have their identities stolen each year, and rummaging through trash is one of the common ways identity thieves victimize consumers.

The FTC encourages consumers to shred charge card receipts, copies of credit card applications, insurance forms, physician statements, checks and bank statements, expired charge cards being discarded and credit offers received in the mail.

Join the fight against breast cancer this October with Hungry Howie’s Pizza & Subs, Inc., during their Love, Hope & Pizza campaign.

For every pizza purchased throughout the month, Hungry Howie’s will make a donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc. The pizza chain raised almost $500,000 for the foundation over the last three years. For their fourth year, Hungry Howie’s hopes to raise $250,000. The originator of the “Flavored Crust Pizza,” Hungry Howie’s has added a new tag line: “Hope comes in many flavors.”

At all participating locations, all pizzas will be served in bright pink boxes emblazoned with breast cancer awareness ribbons instead of the classic Hungry Howie’s yellow boxes. Customers can add a $1 donation to their pizza order, which will go directly to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Donators receive a pink Love, Hope & Pizza wristband as a token of appreciation.

“The Love, Hope & Pizza campaign has become something we are known for in the restaurant and franchising industries, and we are so proud of what we have accomplished over the last several years,” says Jeff Rinke, vice president

of marketing. “It’s not only something that our employees and franchise owners look forward to every year, but it’s also an event our customers anticipate.”

In addition, Hungry Howie’s is using social media for the Love, Hope & Pizza campaign by making a donation to the foundation for every new Facebook fan, every breast cancer story fans share on the Hungry Howie’s Facebook page and for every tweet using the hashtag #lovehopepizza. Hungry Howie’s Facebook fans can also make a donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation through the Facebook page, and the brand will be giving out free pizzas on social media on three days throughout October.

Founded in 1973, Madison Heights, Michigan-based Hungry Howie’s Pizza has more than 500 locations in 24 states including at 1909 E. Ray Rd., Suite 6, Chandler, which can be reached at 480-857-9377; and 3126 S. Higley Rd., Suite 108, Gilbert, 480-840-6000.

How to verify assets when two people divorce can require the use of a financial forensics expert, which is not limited to “NCIS” crime shows.

Randall Sorensen, a CPA with more than 30 years of experience, recently opened a new business, DivorceAssetSearch.com, to ensure his clients’ success and financial protection during a divorce process.

Sorensen, who lives in Chandler’s Heatherbrook subdivision, is certified in financial forensics and has served as an expert in more than 1,500 litigation cases, including as a key expert witness in the Senate impeachment trial of former Arizona Gov. Evan Mecham. His professional experience includes bankruptcy, business interruptions, commercial litigation, contractor disputes, insurance, real estate transactions, tax fraud and divorce.

“DivorceAssetSearch.com is a small group founded on honesty and integrity who strive to minimize the financial outlays and burdens that a divorce can place on a person and their family,” says Sorensen. “The staff at DivorceAssetSearch.com personally identifies with the emotional and financial trying situations facing individuals during the process of divorce.”

The company’s core focus is to work with both individuals representing themselves and to partner with family law attorneys to provide critical financial information early in the stages of the divorce process.

“Although both parties in a divorce are required to complete an Affidavit of Financial Information, it is difficult to be certain that all assets have been disclosed,” Sorensen adds. “Therefore, this group wants to ensure that those involved in the divorce process are placed in a strategic position to obtain and ensure financial protection, especially for the children who are most impacted by a divorce.”

Another goal is to protect their clients from becoming a victim of fraud, by checking for outstanding tax delinquencies or refunds that may be due. If tax delinquencies are not disclosed prior to the divorce, Sorensen says both parties will continue to be liable for the delinquencies even after the divorce is final.

A new website has been launched at DivorceAssetSearch.com and the company can also be found on Facebook.

A new City of Chandler grant program is helping residents of Orangetree in northwest Chandler show their neighborhood pride by installing unique and colorful street name signs at major subdivision entry points.

The signs are the first to be installed under the new program intended to help residents of traditional, non-HOA neighborhoods purchase signs to enhance the character of their subdivisions and foster a sense of pride and belonging.

The sign design was selected through a neighborhood survey and features the words “Orangetree Neighborhood” above the street name and an image of an orange tree at the end of the sign with the words “Welcome to Orangetree.”

Sign grants have also been awarded to Chandler’s Pamela Park and San Mateo Estates neighborhood, which will both have their signs installed Mon., Oct. 22.

Donate blood and give the “gift of life” from 12 to 4 p.m. Mon., Nov. 5 at United Blood Services Blood Drive at Solera Chandler Community Center’s Ballroom, 6360 S. Mountain Blvd., Chandler.

With Arizona’s divorce rate nearing 40%, Thompson Law Firm, 101 W. Commonwealth Ave. in downtown Chandler, will host a free “Divorce and Family Law” seminar at 10:30 a.m. Fri., Oct. 26.

The firm recently added divorce mediation as an area of expertise offered by its attorneys.

“Divorce doesn’t have to be adversarial,” explains founder Christy Thompson. “In fact, couples who communicate well, understand how to state their position, want what’s best for the children and can go into the process positively, will often find the results better than expected.”

At the seminar, attorney Carissa Seidl will discuss divorce in Arizona and address issues such as child custody, spousal maintenance and how long the divorce process takes. In addition, she will answer questions about divorce mediation.

Reservations are recommended and can be made by calling 480-634-7480 or emailing Christy@cmthompsonlaw.com.

The five-billionth gallon of recycled water was pumped back into the ground last month by Chandler’s Reverse Osmosis Facility, which equates to enough water to supply 45,000 Chandler households for a year or fill Tempe Town Lake six times.

The facility also celebrated 15 years without a lost day due to injury, a significant accomplishment for an industrial business that runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

Intel and the City of Chandler have been innovators in the water treatment

industry by using the latest technology in microfiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis to treat industrial process water from Intel’s FAB 12, FAB 22 and FAB 32 facilities to drinking-quality standards. The water is then recharged back into the ground providing a renewable resource for the community.

“This facility was the first of its kind in the U.S. and continues to set the example not only for conservation but also as a successful public-private partnership and outstanding example of corporate citizenship,” says Chandler Mayor Jay Tibshraeny.

Intel’s semiconductor manufacturing plants in Southern Chandler use large amounts of Chandler tap water in their manufacturing processes. The R.O. Facility is designed to treat Intel’s industrial wastewater and recharge it into the aquifer using injection wells. Intel donated the land for the plant, paid to have the facility constructed and also pays Chandler to operate it.

In addition to reclaiming the water from its industrial processes, Intel also uses recycled water in its cooling towers and effluent from the nearby Ocotillo Water Reclamation Facility to irrigate landscaping.

The Chandler R. O. Facility is at Dobson and Queen Creek roads.
